"I can honestly say that Peritus Translations is one of my favorite clients. Not only do they meet all expectations of a freelance translator, i.e. good rates, excellent payment policy (paying within the agreed time frame), excellent communication (i.e. clear and concise instructions, quick response to the translator's questions and requests) and a respectful and friendly relationship with their translators, they also understand the translation process and all of its intricacies very well, as the company's founder and owner is a trained translator herself. The result is an excellent product and high degree of satisfaction for everybody involved."

"Working with Peritus Precision Translations is always a pleasure. The projects are interesting and challenging, and payment always arrives on time. Sometimes, on large-scale projects, it is also an invaluable opportunity to work collaboratively with like-minded, detail-oriented and enthusiastic translators. Dagmar Dolatschko is also a wonderful agency owner. Her experience as a translator makes her truly understanding of translators' tasks, and both her encouragements and appreciation are much valued."

"A long-term partnership like ours is the best a translator can get when working for agencies. Interesting jobs come with precise instructions, there's always appropriate support for queries, and I never needed reminders for payment. I really appreciate working for a pro like Dagmar and her company."

"The fact that the work is interesting makes it pleasant to translate for Peritus, but the real motivator is that at Peritus, someone actually cares about the quality of the translation and even tells the translator when it's been done well! It's a real pleasure to work with people who can actually appreciate what you do! It's worth more than money!

"Dagmar and her project managers go beyond the call of duty in providing easy access to helpful background materials and previous translations. She and her team are always responsive to my ideas and concerns regarding the translations they assign, and their friendliness and warmth make them a pleasure to work with. They are never short on praise for a job well done. An experienced translator herself, Dagmar understands the value and necessity of bringing translators together in a well-connected team for large projects, as such teamwork is important in generating consistent terminology and keeping translator morale high when deadlines are tight. A highlight of working with Dagmar and her staff is the personal touch she brings to our communications, whether by phone or e-mail!"

"Working with Peritus has been very rewarding. They are very professional and treat translators with respect. They do all they can to answer your questions and get the information you need – and sometimes we have lots of questions due to the complexity of the text. They are easy to deal with, and communication is always clear and concise. Besides, I can tell you that the check is always on time."

"Peritus has always responded back immediately if I have questions about the project; it is a pleasure to work with such a professional agency. They see translation for what it is: an art where you just cannot scribble something down - they know it sometimes takes time to come up with the right phrase and they are always very helpful with good instructions, reference material etc., if needed."

"Peritus est l'un de mes meilleurs clients !
On voit bien que Dagmar est elle-même traductrice : ses délais sont raisonnables, ses instructions sont claires et précises et lorsque le projet atterrit sur mon bureau, il est conforme à la description. Seul détail inattendu : la rapidité avec laquelle le chèque atterrit dans ma boîte aux lettres…"

"Peritus is high up on my "favorite client" list, and I'm always happy to hear from them (and very sad whenever I'm too busy to accept one of their jobs!). Project management at Peritus is done efficiently and intelligently; I'm never left guessing about what they want, and actually get answers to questions in a timely manner rather than wondering if they've vanished into a black hole. They're good at putting together translator teams with different backgrounds so we can trade terminology problems by e-mail and keep consist over a long project, and they also provide access to previous work on the project as well. And last but not least: They pay on time, which seems to be an increasing rarity these days... What more could a translator want?!?"

Over the years, I have found Peritus Translations to be a firm which is distinguished by its professionalism in all its dealings and whose reputation for maintaining the highest standards in the translation and interpreting fields is well-earned. I have also come to discover that this is not only my view, but also to be associated with Peritus Translations is seen as a mark of distinction in the professional translator community. Accordingly, I consider myself fortunate to work with Dagmar Dolatschko and the superb people in her firm.
